SIM COMPLETE - 99-00 - OFF-SEASON 3

[Jake]

Setting up my depth charts/line ups. Planning a bit.

Good lord this team is gonna be awful. Just awful. You're welcome, Davenport.

Oh well.

Kind of did the same thing. Had some fun with it.

We're going to be better than you this year... but that might be it. But... going to be more fun than last year.

In the rotation... we go with three 1994 draft picks: 1.6 Skinner, 1.15 Reber, and then I think 2.13 Dugan. Rounding out will likely be McDonald, Ivan Martinez, and Shawn Mills/Alex Crispin.

Love the pen. Nakashima closing, Ballos and Tanaka getting me through 7-8, and then Curt Kelley, Chip Carver, and possibly Victor Tapia as solid enough options. Maybe Pepe Sanchez can rebound from 99.

On offense... it's ugly. But we've got a nice tablesetter in Hanson now... after that, not sure who drives him in. Hopefully Pepe Rodriguez and Ignacio Rodriguez step up... Huerta keeps developing... and maybe we get a guy in FA (not likely).

In 2001, we likely see Luna/Adame, which should add some pop. But... it's not the prettiest picture offensively in our system. We'll see.

Kel Brown took another ratings hit. He's gonna be ridiculously expensive. As of now, I don't even have him starting. Just gonna eat that cost.

Chad Melson might very well be our RBI leader this year. I like Melson, but when he's the best hitter in the lineup, you have problems.

[Jake]

Eh. Kel Brown. Nothing to say there.

Melson, have fun with him being your BMOC.

38 wins... here we come.

Do you think we could lose a combined 200 games?
